| What Stuff Do You Take When Traveling By Car We're going on the road and we will be in one place for about 2 weeks. What would you take with you without looking ridiculous while unpacking the car. I feel I need an X-pen and a small crate in case my two aren't getting along, car seat, grooming stuff, outfits,blankets, toys, and a carrier when I can't leave them at he house or the car and food of course. I'm I crazy? What do you folks pack? I'm curious. |

| I only have one and only took her on a 3 day road trip. I took her harness, collar and lead, an extra harness and lead, pee pads, food and water dishes, food (canned and dry), treats, toys, chews, and clothes, and doggles. I just put it all in a zip up tote bag. I used most everything I brought. Just make a note of each thing that you ( or your yorkie) uses for a few days, that should cover it. If you are staying at someone's home or at a hotel, you can keep your baby in a kitchen or bathroom and block the entryway with a suitcase and empty waste cans. That is what I did and it worked great. About the only thing I did not bring but thought I could have was doggy steps. Gracie did fine jumping on the sofa in the hotel, but the bed was way too high for her.

| LOL Well it seems I've forgotten a few things. I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels they need all their stuff. Would love to hear from some more YT'ers. I know we're not the only ones. |

I will take their whole drawer (a wide kitchen drawer with their medicines, t-shirts, kongs, etc.), their food, hair stuff, shampoo just in case, 2 crates, 1 carseat (sam will sit on laps in the car, normally she is in her seat but I am NOT listening to whining for that long! Loki loves his seat), beds and beds for crates, blankets, bowls, leashes, carrier bags, toys.... I love that when I go to my parent's cabin my mom has towels, sheets, a hair dryer, shampoo... So I'll just pack clothes. These guys will have a suitcase bigger than mine.
